Chapter 268 The Qin Family Bullies the Xia Family

Seeing that she couldn't get the antidote, Song Qing had no choice but to honestly begin to confess, "A while ago, Ye Ya went abroad, it seems she went to a small tropical country, but I don't know exactly what she did there."

I wanted to ask her about it, but she got very serious and immediately suspected I had ulterior motives, so I didn't dare ask anymore.

Upon hearing this, Xia Yue frowned slightly, immediately having a bad feeling.

A small tropical country... She remembered that Shang Zexi went to a small tropical country to find the world's number one hypnotist.

That was her last trump card.

Once Mingzhe is also caught by Ye Ya, there will be no chance of breaking Qin Yeting's hypnosis.

Xia Yue took out her phone, wanting to contact a friend.

However, after making the calls, all the calls went unanswered.

The outcome was obvious: his friend was likely in grave danger.

It's probably already in Ye Ya's hands.

hateful!

Xia Yue clenched her fists in anger!

Song Qing patiently reassured her, "Miss Xia, don't worry. Your friends are all blessed people like you. Nothing will happen to them."

Xia Yue was in no mood to listen to Song Qing's nonsense.

She immediately ordered, "Go check with Ye Ya and see if she brought anyone back from abroad."

"You want me to investigate this? No, that won't do. You can ask me to deliver takeout, but you'd better find someone else to be a spy."

If Ye Ya finds out, I'm dead!

Song Qing refused loudly, her eyes filled with fear.

Xia Yue didn't give the other party a chance to hesitate, and threatened coldly, "If you don't agree, the antidote for this week will be gone, and you can suffer in pain."

After saying that, Xia Yue got up to leave.

Seeing this, Song Qing immediately pleaded, "No! Miss Xia, I promise you! I'll go try it right away! Please give me the antidote!"

Going to Ye Ya's place as a spy still offers a chance, as long as you don't get discovered.

As for Xia Yue, if she wasn't given the antidote, she doubted she would survive more than three days.

Song Qing could tell which of the two was more important.

"If you know what's good for you, that's fine." Xia Yue took out a black pill.

Song Qing excitedly prepared to accept it, but Xia Yue, in front of Song Qing, divided the pill in half and gave Song Qing only half!

Song Qing's expression froze on the spot!

Xia Yue explained calmly, "I'll give you one day to find out exactly what Ye Ya did abroad. Once you have the results, I'll give you the remaining half."

After saying that, Xia Yue turned and left.

The pained Song Qing didn't have time to worry about that. She swallowed half a pill whole, and her body, which had been in unbearable pain, was instantly relieved.

She finally realized that she couldn't escape Xia Yue's grasp and could only obediently do as she was told.

Song Qing regretted it again. How could she have been so blinded by greed and gone after Xia Yue!

well!

Meanwhile, let's talk about Xia Yue.

After explaining the task to Song Qing, she returned to the Xia family.

Having not seen her grandmother and mother for a long time, and with many eyes watching her in the Ye family, plus Qin Yeting keeping an eye on her, she couldn't contact the Xia family all the time. She only knew that her family members were safe for the time being.

However, when Xia Yue arrived at the Xia family's door, she discovered that the family's security system had been upgraded.

There are ten bodyguards at the entrance alone, twice as many as before.

Many of the faces were ones I had never seen before.

When Xia Yue walked over, she was stopped as if she were a stranger.

"Who are you? What are you doing here?" a bodyguard in a black suit asked.

"I'm going back to my own home, what are you going to do about it?" Xia Yue replied irritably.

Who trained these bodyguards? They didn't even know the employer's basic identity information. This was the first time she had ever been treated like this.

But the bodyguard continued to stare coldly at her, and said warily, "You say this is your home, please provide proof!"

Just then, a familiar figure walked out of the Xia family villa.

Upon seeing Xia Yue, the man exclaimed excitedly, "Young Miss, you're finally back!"

"Miss... Miss?" The bodyguard was stunned, not expecting that he had actually stopped a very important person.

Xia Yue didn't argue with the bodyguard, but asked, "Butler, what happened at the Xia family? Why have all the bodyguards at the door been changed?"

"Well, this is a long story. Please come inside with me."

“Okay—” Xia Yue replied loudly.

After following the butler into the house, Xia Yue discovered that the furniture in the villa had also been replaced.

"Has a thief broken into the house?" Xia Yue asked the housekeeper.

The butler explained with a heavy heart, "It wasn't a thief, it was a robber. Less than five days after you left, Miss, the Qin family came. They said that you received a lot of betrothal gifts when you married Young Master Qin, and they came specifically to demand the return of those gifts."

"Bullshit! I only got the marriage certificate, I didn't receive any betrothal gifts. Even if Qin Yeting and I had a financial transaction, that's a separate matter, not related to the betrothal gifts. The Qin family is deliberately trying to annoy people." Xia Yue didn't expect Qin Yeting's mother to be so outrageous.

Judging from the looks of it, they've caused quite a scene at the Qin family's place.

"Are my grandma and mother alright?" Xia Yue quickly asked.

The butler explained loudly, "The old lady and the madam are both worldly people, so of course they weren't intimidated by the Qin family's grandeur. They even gave the Qin family a good scolding and later upgraded the security system."

However, the old lady was quite old and still suffered some shock.

The Qin family, having gained nothing from reclaiming the bride price, turned their attention to the Xia Group. Fortunately, the Feng Group intervened; otherwise, the Xia family would likely be bankrupt by now.
